Foster Poultry Farms Recalls 3.8M Pounds of Chicken Corn Dogs Due to Wood Contamination
Foster Poultry Farms has initiated a substantial recall of approximately 3.8 million pounds of chicken corn dog products, following reports of injuries caused by wood detected in the batter. Consumers and institutions are advised not to consume the recalled products and to either discard them or return them to the point of purchase.
The recalled products were produced between July 30, 2024, and Aug. 4, 2025. They can be identified by the number 'P-6137B' printed on the packaging or inside the USDA mark of inspection. This recall is part of a series of similar incidents in the U.S., where contaminants such as plastic, metal fragments, and bugs have been found in various food items. While the entity responsible for the sale of the affected products is not specified in the search results, a previous recall involving similar products was attributed to Texas-based Hillshire Brands, a subsidiary of Tyson Foods.
Foster Poultry Farms' recall underscores the persistent issue of foreign object contamination in the U.S. food industry. Consumers are urged to inspect their purchases and adhere to the recall instructions to ensure their safety.
